and some casual clothing we can wear over our armor. Or allow us to wear the current stolen clothes over armor, of course.

You want to pull a shirt over your plate armour, or what are you trying to say?

Very very disappointed in you guys again. Limited availability? Really? As in, you don't have enough copies of digital... I just.... smh..
[snip]

Other than that, costumes are good and everything. But limited availability of that mount.. Really upsets me..

[snip] It's pure cosmetics, you can get another mount just as useful for fraction of the price, it doesn't hurt anyone at all. Let them have their limited time offers, the more money they make on them, the fewer grinds they'll have to add to real gameplay.

Buncha things:

1. Yes to dyeable costumes/vanity skins!
2. Yes to more multiracial "formal" gear.
3. Tattoos/jewelry packs perhaps? That can be worn along with vanity skins?
4. How about being able to change the color/style of barding on mounts?
5. RE harassment on Playstation: Believe me, it makes playing Destiny almost impossible. It's a real concern. It's part of why I prefer to use PCs vs consoles.
6. Mounts: Will we be seeing more when Orsinium launches?

Thank you for listening to me about adding a leopard to consoles. It's gorgeous. Now please add the MUTE FEATURE. Sony only allows us to block 30 players and I've maxed that because they are horny little *** and don't know how to act around females. Please take better steps to protect the female gamers in your community, just add the mute feature.

I believe there'll be a new limited time mount every month, so that means plenty of mounts between now and Orsinium, and after. What kind of mounts they'll have after the coming one? I don't know, but it won't be a Senche anymore. It'll most likely be the Soul Shriven Horse. But after that, no idea. Perhaps finally a 4th type of mount.

This is the official discussion thread for the web article, "Crown Store Showcase: August 7th, 2015."

Check out all of this months new offerings, including the Nedic Warrior Pack and a limited-time only Clouded Senche-Leopard! See what else we have in-store in our latest issue.

Will the Nedic warrior armor be also sold as a Motif in the future, as I would pay good money to be able to use just the helm in that set.

Seriously. Stop with the money grabbing. A sub would be better if this content came with it as in-game currency, and a decent priced one at that. This is getting ridiculous! 2500 crowns for a mount is over priced. Almost as bad as Warframe.

Skcarkden

Stop. Making. Limited. Time. Content.


We live in a digital era and you actually have limited content? Come on. You might get more sales of the same item longterm if you didn't remove it. It's not even special, it's just a re-skin that you spent maybe 1 hour on. It has nothing going for it other than being a different skin. so why limit it?

darthgummibear_ESO

The only crown store stuff I like is the costumes, but until they are dyeable I won't be spending any money on them.

bedlom

I know I'll be buying it all for sure but where is the blacksmith and chef costumes zos?

Male wedding attire finally, looks great also.

Marques

Actually, the inclusion of monthly limited mounts is a good idea to support the continuous funding of the game. We all want ESO to stay alive and well for many years to come, hopefully in the future we will have the whole continent of Tamriel accessible in the game. These mounts are simply cosmetic, so no one has to purchase them to play more efficiently and those who actually wish to support the development of the game can do it this way and have a visual perk for that active support. I see nothing wrong with that. It's a fair and honest method and it keeps the game away from Pay2Win additions.

Yes, it is unfortunate. [snip] It's actually an extremely risky tactic, as customer satisfaction, especially within an MMO context, is very important. This is because player 'word' of mouth/social-media-usage is the most powerful form of long term advertising for games.

Hoping this mount is $10!

Seth_Black

Please add prices in crowns to update posts like that.
Previous 'coming soon to the crown store near you' was always with prices included,
so people could plan when to buy additional crowns if needed

I've been waiting for this mount LOOOOOONG time

Brassmonkey

Did they give any official word on whether or not this would be the last cat mount? They did a really awesome texture job on this one. Looks really nice.

They never gave an official word, however, months and months ago they first shown screenshots of a bunch of Senche mounts. And this was the only one that was still missing, plus next month when there'll be another mount, it's while the new Update is in place, so it's a good combination.
Which is why I think this was the last Senche mount.

Would be nice to be able to purchase a special "crate" of tempers and trait stones.
Players are constantly upgrading weapons and armor as they climb levels. Could be a healthy ongoing revenue stream.

tordr86b16_ESO

dear god, how many reskins are you gonna do of the same models ZOS? give us something NEW.

Fanman420

I really hope it's not going to be 3000 crown it should at least be cheaper for ESO plus members

Now that would be a good incentive for people to subscribe. Quite a valuable marketing idea.

Elder_Martin

Remember in Morrowind when you could wear like 20 different armor pieces? Robes over all of your armor and multiple different armor pieces? Good times...

So they skipped the Mind Shriven Horse after all? Bummer.

The Mind Shriven Horse is part of the Imperial City DLC so I doubt they'll offer it in the Crown Store (at least not for a long time anyway)

It's been frequently requested that these updates include the cost of each item, can anyone say if or when that will be implemented?

The blacksmithing and chef costumes where discounted some time ago, they where announced as being discontinued and marked down to half price for like, a week or more. Srry brah.

Actually, it's a bad idea. 4 days to buy a limited time mount that no one even knows about. Someone that checks the store for new additions every 7 days despite there being no update? Welp, they most definitely missed it. Infact the only way people would even know about it is if they check the website for news or the store within every 4 days, as there is also NO actual notifications on news within the game. It's like having a promotion without telling anyone, and the only way to take part in the promo is to indicate you're aware of it's existence.

I want ESO to stay alive too, that's why i want the promotional mounts to be available for purchase good, or at least much longer than 4 days, maybe even put in a rotating cycle so they aren't gone for good. (which, as you mentioned fair, would also be fair toward the console players who missed out on many things due to the delays of the release) Because it means in the long term it'll get more sales than it would in just 4 days for something that people don't even check news when an update happens that they knew took place. It also means people can not accuse ZoS of cash grabbing schemes, which is always a reputation ruiner.

I've already bought the equivalent to 25,000 crowns sadly since it launched on PS4, if i could have, i would have bought the past items i missed, but because of the limited time BS, rather than a guaranteed purchase, they don't want to 'earn' extra money for a simple skin that took what i'd guess is one hours time.

Surragard

Not a huge fan of the helmet but I like the Nedic Warrior armor sets. The medium armor one (middle in the photo) is my favorite. The chest piece is cool and fits well with the lower body cloth.

@ZOS_JasonLeavey Nice. Thank you for the heads up!

The_4O4

I've been trying to avoid Guar and Leopard mounts for lore reasons, but I think I'm going to have to break down and buy this. It looks too badass to pass up!
